Hey guys,

I want to use a displacement map on my roof tiles texture, however the option has been removed from the material itself and I can't find a way to implement it. would appreciate any given help :]

You can use the modeling tools in ue4:

or apply the displacement map in a 3d modeling program before importing into ue4 as nanite.

Thanks for the reply, ill check it out, but it is really annoying to use a third party software for every mesh, it's double the work time, hopefully a more alternative solution will on the way from epic.
